Why to Check iPhone 3GS BootRom

There are jailbreak available for iOS 4.0 firmware. But there are two iPhone 3GS models with old BootRom [iBoot-359.3] and New BootRom [iBoot-359.3.2]. There’s a jailbreak exploit available for Old BootRom so you can jailbreak iPhone 3GS iOS 4 with old BootRom. But the New BootRom has no jailbreak exploit so the iPhone 3GS with iBoot-359.3.2 cannot be jailbroken. So, it’s important to know what iBoot version your iPhone 3GS has.

iDetector can successfully detect:

  • iPhone 3GS New BootRom [iBoot-359.3.2]
  • iPhone 3GS Old BootRom [iBoot-359.3]

iDetector is a real easy to use application to check iPhone 3GS BootRom (Old or New). Simply place your 3GS into DFU mode and click the button.

    I got 3GS 32 gb
    After much effort iDetector finally worked for me but only in RECOVERY MODE. In DFU mode it never detected my iphone.
    iBoot :
    iDetector – NEW
    Usbview utility shows – 359.3
    In Vista – Device Instance Path Shows – 359.3
    Confused!!!

      kitrik, I had the same problem on WinXP 32bit: iDetector didn’t see my iPhone in DFU mode and in recovery it recognized my bootrom as NEW, though I have 359.3.

      I connected my iPhone in DFU mode to Win7 64bit and iDetector recognized it correctly. It said I have an OLD bootrom. In recovery mode it still says that I have a NEW bootrom!

      I think it only works correctly in DFU mode, and if your computer doesn’t see your iPhone than use a newer OS.
